As Andreas said, mixed distribution solutions might give strange
results.  But to give some ideas on where the problem might originate,
I will provide some notes.  It is unclear to me what you mean by
installing Debian Edu, as it is a cluster of profiles and more
specific information is needed to know what you did.

When that is said, I suspect the file /etc/lsb-release in the
debian-edu-config package is the only file capable of changing what
other programs believe to be the distribution name.  Try to drop the
package, modify the file or move the file away to see if it solve your
problem.

Happy hacking,
